Abstract :
This paper presents radar cross section (RCS) measurement for pedestrian detection in 79GHz-band radar system. For a human standing at 6.2 meters, the RCS distribution´s median value is -11.1 dBsm and the 90 % of RCS fluctuation is between -20.7 dBsm and -4.8 dBsm. Other measurement results (human body poses beside front) are shown. And we calculated the coefficient values of the Weibull distribution fitting to the human body RCS distribution.
